On the Likability of Bugs
I have a confession to make about my attitude toward bugs. (I say bugs instead of perhaps insects, because if I say bugs I can lump spiders and roly polies in there too and not worry about making any egregious classification errors.) Okay, here goes: I have a completely irrational, terribly unscientific system for determining which bugs I like.
It goes something like this:
It’s not fair, cockroach, and I’m sorry about that. I’ll work on it.
